About this property

Beautifully Updated Oceanfront Cottage with a Hot Tub in Downtown, Beach Access!

The Weather Gauge

This sweet blue cottage has been hosting seaside guests in the perfect location since 1925, but you’d never know it inside—thoughtful renovation designed for the modern guest makes it a sleek showcase of practicality and comfort. You’ll climb stairs to reach the front door to a pristine, white interior, bright with ocean light and contemporary furnishings, and blessed with Pacific views. Sit back on sofas in front of the wall-mounted TV, dine at the playful dining table, or engage in conversation in the little sitting area off to the side—you’ll always be comfortable with the modern heating/air-conditioning system. Cooking in the polished galley kitchen is a breeze—you’ll love the new appliances and glossy blue tile—and you can grill out in the little fenced yard and eat at the picnic table in the ocean breeze or check out the private beach access. You’ll love the queen bedroom and sparkling bath on the main level; the upstairs double twin under skylit eaves with a view of the sea is a dreamy retreat.

Your location is superb: you’re steps from miles of level sand, surf and views of Twin Rocks. When you’re ready for a change of scene, rinse off the sand in the home’s outdoor shower and walk to restaurants and shops in Rockaway Beach’s downtown. Catch an old-fashioned ride on a steam train on the Oregon Scenic Railroad to Garibaldi and back, passing beautiful bays and sloughs along the coast. Jump in the car to explore the whole North Coast. At the end of the day, you’ll be back to your cottage by the sea for another memorable sunset.

Best trip ever
We had the best time at the Weather Gauge - the view and the beach itself is incredible. Perfect location to walk to dinner, drive up for a day in Seaside or Cannon Beach, do some quick easy hikes, and play on the beach. Would definitely stay here again!

Great Location!
Right on the beach with very easy access to the sand and water. Just a very short, fairly flat walk. Also walking location to shops and restaurants. The hot tub is very nice, as is the small yard with BBQ and picnic table, but it isn’t super private because the neighbors are very close. The upstairs is a great room for kids and the downstairs main with en-suite is nice for adults. Very well equipped kitchen too!

Family Vacation
Beautiful house and perfect location. Wish there had been a tv in the bedroom(s) for the nighttime. Not a huge deal. We really enjoyed our stay!
